  1. Invasive fungal infections - The new threat | DW Documentary

    Invasive fungal infections are increasingly leading to life-threatening diseases worldwide. And in agriculture, fungi pose a massive threat to harvests…

  2. A lab on wheels is tracking #HIV spread in #war-torn #Ukraine
    Lab uncovered #drugresistant HIV strain that sprung up after war started
    HIV has been spreading in Ukraine since 1990s, mainly through IV drug use but also sexual activity. The Russian invasion of Crimea in 2014 and the expanded siege beginning in 2022 have exacerbated the problem by reducing access to testing, treatment and preventative measures, such as needle exchange programs.

  10. Powerful new #antibiotic that can kill #superbugs discovered in #soil #bacteria
    Surprise discovery could pave the way for new treatments against #drugresistant #infections.
    They discovered an intermediate compound — called premethylenomycin C lactone — whose #antimicrobial activity was 100 times stronger than that of the final product. Tiny doses killed strains of bacteria known to cause hard-to-treat infections.

    Drugs are structurally distinct from any existing antibiotics, and appear to work by novel mechanisms that disrupt bacterial cell membranes. This makes them less vulnerable to antibiotic resistance, a growing problem: estimated drug-­resistant bacterial infections cause nearly 5M deaths/yr.

  18. New #antibiotic that kills #drugresistant #bacteria discovered in technician’s #garden
    It targets bacteria’s protein-making factory, the #ribosome, in a way that other antibiotic drugs don’t. Ribosome is an attractive antibiotic target because bacteria don’t easily develop resistance to #drugs targeting the structure. In studies, #lariocidin slowed the growth of a range of common bacterial #pathogens, including many multidrug-resistant strains.

  26. #China has a big #STD problem with #supergonorrhea, study finds
    #DrugResistant #gonorrhea is a growing problem—one that doesn't heed borders
    Study surveyed gonorrhea—Neisseria gonorrhoeae—from around China and found prevalence of #ceftriaxone-resistant isolates nearly tripled between 2017 and 2021. Ceftriaxone-resistant strains made up roughly 8% of the nearly 3,000 bacterial isolates collected from gonorrhea infections in 2022. That's up from just under 3% in 2017.

  30. Experts sound the alarm over #drugresistant #fungal infection detected in US

    Story by Matthew Dooley, December 4, 2023

    "Experts are sounding the alarm about a highly contagious #fungaldisease that's becoming resistant to common drugs. They warn this could make illnesses like #thrush much harder to treat.

    "Medical professionals have warned that the world is not prepared for the growing threat of fungal infections.

    "These can range from common conditions like #ringworm and thrush to life-threatening bloodstream infections caused by #CandidaAlbicans and #CandidaAuris.

    "David Denning, a professor at the University of Manchester, previously spoke to The Mirror about a drug-resistant form of #ringworm. He explained how this fungus can easily spread in schools and homes.

    "He said: 'Skin fungal infections are transmitted from one person to another in schools, homes and with intimate contact. This new #TerbinafineResistant fungus is a new species called #TrichophytonIndotineae and [was] first identified in India.

    "Experts believe the rise in resistant fungi is due to overuse of over-the-counter #antifungal creams, misuse of #TopicalSteroid creams, incorrect prescription of antifungal drugs, as well as patients not sticking to prescribed courses of antifungal medication."
